Default Bad Gas Smell

There is a major gas smell that i just noticed tonight. It stunk up the whole garage. I just had my intakemanifold gaskets replaced. Anyone have any ideas of whats causing the leak?I think its coming from the front of the car in the engine? 1986 vette.

Hi mraaron
Sense you just had the manifold gasket replaced I would look for a fuel leak check the lines and the fuel injector area. check for fuel sitting ware the intake manifold meets the head. If they didn't replace the o rings on the fuel injectors it is a good possibility. If it is leaking I think I would give the person a call that did the intake work.
Good Luck and have a nice Turkey day
